Chemical Structure

4-(3-methoxyphenethyl)phenol CAS CATO-C4X-291340 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 4-(3-methoxyphenethyl)phenol (C15H16O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

4-(3-methoxyphenethyl)phenol (CAS CATO-C4X-291340) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H16O2 and a molecular weight of 228.29 g/mol.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
